OCS, a leading FM company, was presented with the prestigious Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Award at the Irish Contract Cleaning Association Awards (ICCA), held in Dublin on Friday the 11th of October. This recognition affirms its ongoing commitment to make a positive impact through ESG initiatives.
The ICCA provides cleaning companies the opportunity to showcase how they implement their ESG strategies whilst aligning those initiatives with commercial success. During the awards ceremony, it was highlighted that Exclusive Services Group, an OCS group company, embodies its core values of PRIDE: People, Respect, Integrity, Development and Efficiency, aligning with its new parent company, OCS’s TRUE Values: Trust, Respect, Unity and Empowerment, displaying that the recent acquisition, which took place early September, was a suitable match.
The group’s dedication to people is demonstrated through a focus on employee development and wellbeing, which directly correlates with an engaged workforce and enhanced service delivery. By embedding respect and integrity in all commercial interactions, it builds trust with customers and stakeholders, ensuring ESG efforts are impactful. Furthermore, its commitment to development and efficiency drives the business to continuously innovate its services, and implement sustainable practices that benefit both customers and the environment.
Attending the awards were Jim Melvin and Kevin Meighan, who expressed their gratitude upon receiving the award, stating: “Our commitment is simply to take what we believe to be the correct, sustainable approach for our colleagues and customers, and it is great to be recognised for that. This award is a testament to their dedicated team and the meaningful work they undertake to foster a sustainable future.”
Sean Fisher, Chief Executive Officer Cleaning UK, OCS UK & Ireland, commented: “We are incredibly proud of the recognition received at the ICCA Awards. This prestigious ESG Award is a testament to a focused commitment to sustainability and excellence in service delivery. We’re thrilled to have welcomed Exclusive into the OCS fold in September and look forward to working, with joined efforts, to positively impact our colleagues, customers, and the environment. This award highlights the meaningful strides we are making towards a sustainable future.”
